Community Programs CARES
Through the citizen-led CARES (Citizens Advancing Responsible Emergency Services) program community members have had an opportunity to learn more about all aspects of the fire and emergency rescue service and assist in creating a long-range plan for CFPD.
Through a series of CARES meetings, participants heard an informational presentation, and then provided feedback that was used to formulate the recommendations for the long-range plan. These recommendations are now being developed into a long range strategic plan with annual operational objectives.
